My Project

As a kid, nothing is more fun than seeing fresh snow on the ground and running outside with friends to play in it. As a kid, I grew up racing to put on all of my warm gear and heading out for hours, building snowmen, going sledding, and having snowball fights - all things that could not be possible without my warm snow pants, boots, coat, and hat.

Because many of my current 2nd graders live in poverty, things like hats, gloves, and coats are treasured items - your donation will help me acquire some winter clothes for them.

This way, when it is recess time, these students can suit up and run outside when it is cold outside with the rest of my class, and be normal kid enjoying the snow.
